Power management system for distributor
The application is that the applying date is special for the China on December 11st, 2013, entitled " power management system for being used for distributor " Profit application 201380072042X divisional application.
Technical field
Describe a kind of power management system for distributor.The system includes being connected to low-power zero net voltage The controller of (zero net voltage, ZNV) power source.ZNV power is converted to HVDC by power rectifying circuit (PRC) (higher voltage direct current, HVDC) power.The energy storage system for being connected to HVDC power sources receives HVDC power sources and it is stored within energy storage system, the HVDC power sources, which are selectively provided to, to be connected to The distributor motor load of energy storage system.The system provides effective solution for following problems:From disposable To distributor transimission power in low battery power source on product, and provide and reduce disposable products and distribution to greatest extent The problem of system of the corrosion particularly in high humidity environment at electric interfaces between device.
Background technology
Dissemination system for products such as such as soap, air freshener (air care) and paper handkerchiefs is widely used in all over the world Millions of individuals and public lavatory's facilities.It is well known that such system can be manual, semi- or fully automated System, these systems are needed with the different types of user mutual of system to distribute soap or paper handkerchief.Manual system usually requires Physically movable button or crank arm etc. carry out mechanically moving part to distribute material to user, and automanual system may need user to touch Button is touched to start the electrically activated of mechanical part, and automatic system can detect the presence of user to start the electricity of mechanical part Gas activates.
From the perspective of publilc health, it is semi-automatic and preferred increasingly to wish that increase is disposed in public lavatory's facility Full automatic dissemination system, primarily to the physical contact of user and discharge device is reduced or minimize, so as to reduce germ The risk propagated between users.
However, semi-automatic and automatic distributing system (may particularly have to owner and administrative staff in their house property Those buildings of hundreds of or thousands of washrooms or the owner and administrative staff of facility) bring problem.Particularly, as many Well known, depending on dissemination system requires that for example the running stores of tissue products or liquid soap product must be consumed with product Phase is changed.Therefore, owner/administrative staff can engage a considerable amount of people to be responsible for supplementing the running stores in distributor.
In the case of semi-automatic and automatic distributing system, most of these distributors are provided using single or multiple batteries Energy completes distribution procedure.In most of designs, the wear rate of running stores is bigger than the power consumption rate in battery to be obtained It is more.That is, the paper handkerchief in distributor may have to be changed repeatedly, and in many designs for one day, the electricity in distributor Pond is only changed using the time in month as yardstick.However, different washrooms may have substantially different use speed, from And the battery in a washroom may quickly be failed than the battery in a nigh washroom.Its result It is the battery for being generally very difficult to effectively cope with failure between numerous washrooms with the time, the mistake of battery in distributor Effect has essentially become random event.Importantly, if battery is not changed in time, user is often to discharge device Become dejected, or and may multiple surfaces of final touch apparatus cause to be cleaned thereafter, or worse, cause Damage to distributor.In addition, the manufacturer of running stores also due to the non-dispensing consumer products of inoperative discharge device and lose Income.
Each in these factors may be had an impact to adopting and using the dispensing utensil of these types, wherein true Upper consumer is potentially based on their the previously experiences interacted with particular type distributor, and association avoids certain types of distribution Device.As a result, improving in the reliability of distributor can adopting and using with significantly affecting on this kind of product.
Further, in big house property (such as hospital or airport), the time required for changing battery is considerable. In many distributors, in order to change battery, it is necessary to take a large amount of steps to remove the battery exhausted, and change them.Example Such as, compared with changing the relatively easy step of running stores, battery compartment generally requires extra key or step specifically to remove With replacing battery.It is understood that the personnel for identifying and tackling inoperative distributor, have notable cost.
A kind of scheme for solving these problems is that battery is incorporated into running stores or as single part or as its bag The global facility of dress.As single part, each packaging of running stores will include battery, so that battery is being changed every time It is able to can be replaced during running stores.As described in United States Patent (USP) 6209752, battery can form the global facility of running stores packaging, its Middle user is packed to change running stores and battery simply by inserting new running stores in distributor.That is, every time When changing the running stores in distributor, distributor receives new battery to run distributor.Typically, in the designs, disappear Consumption product packaging has two electrodes, and described two electrodes are frictionally connected to the corresponding electrode on distributor so that power can be from Running stores packaging is transmitted to controller/drive system of distributor.
Although overcome one as described above on the different service times arrangements between matching running stores and battery A little problems, but this technology generates a particular problem, that is, particularly when distributor and replacing thing are fixed on such as The possibility of electrode corrosion when in air freshener or liquid soap dispenser product.That is, because of distribution now Equipment is typically low-voltage direct-current equipment (it is typically mounted in the environment of the relative humidity of washroom), and these known conditions Be advantageous to metal migration, galvanic corrosion and/or cause go out a little between formed corrode or resistance.With the resistance between electric contact Increase, the efficiency of system reduce, and this may cause systematic function reduction and/or premature failure.In other words, although overcoming height This problem of effect replacing battery, but this technology may produce other problemses in dissemination system.Therefore, it is necessary to which one kind can Combine the running stores and battery but do not cause the power system of electrode corrosion.
On the other hand, for manufacturing the company of dissemination system, it is still desirable in the design of their distributor By preventing from protecting their investment using the running stores of other manufacturers in their distributor.That is, it is known that Ground, when manufacturer's commercialization distributor, based on being covered then to customer sales running stores by lasting income/profit is provided The expection of the cost of distributor is developed, this distributor is generally sold with relatively low price.Therefore, and then need so A kind of system, it can effectively prevent from using unwarranted running stores in dissemination system, and provide running stores and distribution Effective key between device.
Further, it is also necessary to a kind of system of the more effectively power in management system.More specifically, as above institute State, when power cell (power cell) (such as battery) can be merged into running stores as described above, it is necessary to as far as possible reduction disappear The amount for the power being wasted in battery in consumption product.
For example, it is desired to when ensuring that the running stores of such as soapbox are fully used, the battery associated with the soapbox is same When also effectively exhaust so that when battery is processed, it is in spent condition.That is, it is undesirable to when battery portion Battery is abandoned when dividing ground to exhaust.
Further, also exist and eliminate or reduce the demand of available battery in distributor and provide with effective side Effectively needs of the system of delivered power between formula position different in dissemination system.That is, it is desirable to have such one Kind system, the system, which is relevant to its power demand, can effectively eliminate the needs of operator's intervention distributor in itself.
Further, it is also necessary to a kind of EMS, at the time of the system is minimized from user close to distributor Time required for the delay of the activation of beginning and distribution product.That is, it is well known that if automatically or semi-automatically divided Hair device initiates the distribution of product not within the about 0.2-0.3 seconds, then consumer the delay is generally considered as distributor may not work The instruction of work, it then may cause improper interaction dejected or with distributor.
Further, it is necessary to which such a energy system, it can quickly cause low-voltage/low current work(in running stores Rate source is adjusted so that in the high current motor for alloing it in dissemination system and is used effectively.
Further, also presence can catch spuious (stray) energy in dissemination system to improve integral energy pipe Manage the needs of efficiency.Meanwhile can also when running stores have exhausted in the presence of influence, reduction of the larger battery of reduction processing to environment The needs of the amount of the energy for the waste that can be thrown away.

B) low-voltage, low current power are used to charge for different capacity storage device;
C) kinetic energy is captured from dissemination system to strengthen the life-span of whole efficiency and/or dissemination system;And
D) ID signals are decoded and separated from power signal.
Fig. 4 shows one embodiment of distributor circuit 18, and Fig. 5 shows rectification and decoding in distributor circuit Controller (RDC) 20.Specifically, Fig. 4 show controller 18 (have for example, application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), microcontroller or The combination of the analog- and digital- discreet component of person).Herein in described embodiment, the pulse work(that is provided by power cell 14a Rate passes through electric wire 18b, 18c to controller 18.In this manual, the ASIC that wherein pulse signal reaches 18b, 18c is described. ID signals are decoded from pulse signal, and the ID signals are sent to ASIC via output 20g or are extremely used for the independence explained Circuit (not shown).After rectification, by 20d, 20e provide power output and can be stored in capacitor 22f, In 22g, and for being load 22k power supplies or being that Auxiliary Power Unit 18e is recharged.Voltage increase may, for example, be power list 2-4 times of first 14a voltage.In this case, ASIC, which will be determined whether, needs power to be charged for capacitor, or is auxiliary Power cell recharges.The control of capacitor and Auxiliary Power Unit 18e charging or power release is by switching 22j, 22j ', The input signal 22i of ASIC on 22j " and 22j " ' is controlled.For example, if energy is available and does not need work( Rate, then switch 22j, 22j ', 22j " and 22j " ' be open think that capacitor charges.If capacitor has been electrically charged, power Can with and also Auxiliary Power Unit need power, then switch 22j and 22j " closures and switch 22j ' and 22j " ' and open power Guide to capacitor and Auxiliary Power Unit.If reception signal so that power is guided to load 22k, switchs 22j, 22j ' and 22j " ' is closed and is switched 22j " openings, so that power is preferentially drawn from capacitor.
The degree of the charging of capacitor is to be measured by ASIC by the voltage of 22h measurement capacitors.That is, it is Make on switching 22j, 22j ', the decision of 22j " and 22j " ' position, ASIC is to capacitor and Auxiliary Power Unit both ends Voltage sampled.If the voltage of capacitor is more than Auxiliary Power Unit 18e, switch is put in appropriate position, work( Rate is routed to load from storage.If the voltage at capacitor both ends is less than power cell 18e, power is by via work( Rate unit 18e is route.Therefore, the function may insure that power can be used to as load supplying all the time, so as to prevent from making user worried Activation in delay.In addition, the controller 18 of combination and rectification and decoding circuit 20 (following description) allow that electricity can be consumed The low current low-voltage power in pond is used as carrying out trickle charge (trickle charge) to capacitor, while does not load Demand provides charge power.It should also be noted that an example of the foregoing design for being EMS, such as this area Modification is made it will be understood by the skilled person that can also be commonly designed.
